On episode 12 of Data & Impact, we had the pleasure of sitting down with Rehgan Avon, CEO of AlignAI and Co-Founder of Women in Analytics, to discuss organizations investing in their data talent. 

Diving into Rehgan’s background, we learn how she developed her passion for analytics during the rise of big data analytics. Christian begs the question about the advantages of being a STEM major in the data science space versus someone who may have studied business administration or another non-STEM degree. Also ensuring that you think about how a company’s ecosystem will be conducive to obtaining and actually utilizing a certification to upskill.

The conversation also goes deep into AlignAI’s program development for organizations and how they can help fine-tune the culture around data literacy and management.

We also touch on Women in Analytics and upskill offerings through their annual global event DataConnect Conference!
